That's crazy lol I could understand if u had a full on camp outfit. Also I wonder when they started banning metal detectors. I met a guy who stayed on the beach where we stay and he went to Negril once a year and had a metal detector that worked in the water. He spent all every morning walking in the water with his metal detector. The stuff he found was amazing and he said that metal detector payed for two vacations a year. One in Negril and one at a different place. He even found a lady,s wedding ring that she lost when she was in the water. Maybe he just takes it apart and puts it in his suitcase and keeps his mouth shut when going through customs. Glad I saw this post but still think I will bring my camp shorts and hat but won't be wearing it on the plane lol.
